CHS coach Tim Gray was excited about his teamâ€™s finish and the improvement in scores from the seasonâ€™s first match at Clarkston last month.

Much improved

â€śOur scores were much improved over the first event,â€ť Gray said. â€śIt was great to see Samâ€™s (Artzis) tournament best round and a strong score from Duncan (Maben). It is also good to have Matt back on the team (Hubbard).â€ť
